[Meta] An update to yesterday’s post

Hi all. I wanted to give a brief update following yesterday’s post

1. Advertising and promotional posts

Going forward, businesses that are active participants in the community and have received prior approval may post one top-level promotional thread per month.

A few clarifications:

• Posts such as this will not be treated as advertising. Sharing external write-ups that help clarify complex topics is considered good-faith knowledge sharing and is beneficial to the community.

• Community members who regularly contribute to the group may, when relevant, include links to their services in comment replies. The consensus from yesterday’s thread was that allowing experts who consistently dedicate time and expertise to reference their businesses when directly relevant to the conversation is reasonable, fair, and a net positive for the group.

2. Moderation update

Wendy u/SKWendyJamieson will be joining the moderation team as of today. She has been an invaluable resource to both this subreddit and the related FB community for years. Her extensive familiarity with the process and the trust she has built within the community make her a great fit for the role.

If anyone has suggestions or concerns going forward, please feel free to reach out via message or mod mail. This subreddit has grown into a strong and supportive community, and our aim is to maintain an environment that is clear, well-structured, respectful, and useful for everyone.

Thank you to everyone who shared their thoughts yesterday!
